Subject: FahCore_a8 v0.0.12 segfault on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS / Kernel 6.14 - CPU work units crash immediately
System Information:

OS: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
Kernel: 6.14
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 12-Core Processor (24 threads)
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti
RAM: 62.72 GiB
F@H Client: v8.4.9
Username: Hemlok
Team: 250299

Problem Description:
All CPU work units fail immediately after starting with "Core was killed" / "Core crashed with exit code 0" errors. GPU folding works perfectly without issues.
Symptoms:

CPU work units (using FahCore_a8 v0.0.12, Gromacs core) consistently crash within seconds of starting
Work units complete only "1 out of 2500000 steps (0%)" before crashing
GPU work units (using Core22, OpenMM) complete successfully
Pattern repeats with every CPU work unit assigned

Example from F@H logs:
20:55:43:I1:WU185:Project: 16959 (Run 19, Clone 116, Gen 991)
20:55:43:I1:WU185:Calling: mdrun -c frame991.gro -s frame991.tpr -x frame991.xtc -cpt 5 -nt 12 -ntmpi 1

20:55:44:I1:WU185:Completed 1 out of 2500000 steps (0%)
20:56:51:E :WU185:Core was killed

20:56:51:E :WU185:Core returned FAILED_1 (0)

```

**Note:** The negative step numbers (`first=-1817467296 total=-1814967296`) appear unusual and may indicate a corrupted work unit or core issue.

**Kernel logs (dmesg) show segmentation faults:**

**FahCore_a8 details:**
```
Core: Gromacs
Type: 0xa8
Version: 0.0.12
Date: Jan 16 2021
Time: 19:24:44
Compiler: GNU 8.3.0
Platform: linux2 4.15.0-128-generic
Bits: 64
Mode: Release
SIMD: avx2_256
OpenMP: ON
CUDA: OFF
Root Cause:
The FahCore_a8 binary (compiled for kernel 4.15.0-128) is experiencing memory access violations (segfaults) when running on the modern kernel 6.14. The core is attempting to access invalid memory addresses, causing immediate crashes.
Troubleshooting steps attempted:

Fixed v7 to v8 config file migration issues (removed deprecated options: gpu, fold-anon, pci-bus, pci-slot)
Deleted and re-downloaded FahCore_a8 (rm -rf /var/lib/fah-client/cores/fahcore-a8*)
Full service restart
Tried multiple different CPU work units - all crash with identical symptoms
Verified no DNS/network issues (other computers on network fold successfully, GPU folding works)
Checked dmesg logs - confirmed segmentation faults in FahCore_a8

Workaround:
Currently running with CPU folding disabled (<cpus value="0"/> in config.xml). GPU folding continues to work flawlessly.
Question:
Is there a newer version of FahCore_a8 available that's compatible with Ubuntu 24.04 / kernel 6.14? Or is this a known issue with a planned fix?
The core appears to be nearly 4 years old (Jan 2021) and may need to be recompiled for modern Linux kernels.

There is nothing wrong with the core. Your CPU/system is unstable

Run full system stability test, like y-cruncher for extensive amount of time to determine if the system is stable or not. The way yours craps out straight away, it might be temperature of the cpu
